Leveling With The Gods - Chapter 439

[Level Up with God Episode 439]

* * *

Mee-.

Meeee-.

Meeeeeee-.

The mountain goats roared loudly.

Even though Yuwon and Zeus approached within a short distance, they didn’t even turn their heads.

The goats’ eyes were always focused on Al. As if waiting for it to hatch.

“By autumn leaves, did you mean something like fried eggs?”

A sarcastic comment asking why you went around so hard just to find something like that.

However, in response to Zeus’s reaction, Yuwon asked back as if he was worried about him.

“Are you going to be okay?”

“What do you mean?”

“If that guy heard that, he’d be pretty angry.”

“If I were angry at that thing that hatched from an egg…”

Zeus’ eyebrows twitched irregularly for a moment as he continued speaking.

It looked so insignificant on the outside that it was overlooked, but it was clearly the egg Yuwon had been desperately looking for.

Yuwon knew Shub Nigguras better than anyone else.

If Yuwon was splitting his precious time like he was doing right now, there must have been a reason.

‘It’s definitely strange.’

Zeus removed the prejudice that was blocking his vision and looked again at the scene unfolding before his eyes.

‘It doesn’t seem like he’s threatening anything special. It was like they were gathered together and wrapped around each other…’

There was only one word to describe that appearance.

‘It looks like it’s holding up that egg.’

When I thought about what it would have been like if Shub Nigguras had been there instead of Al, I didn’t feel the slightest sense of discomfort.

I thought I knew it wasn’t an ordinary egg. Maybe the being that hatches from that egg can become the master key that will lead this fight to victory.

Of course, that’s only after the egg hatches and the being that emerges from it has grown sufficiently.

So it was natural for Zeus to be frustrated.

“so? Are you saying we should just leave it like this and watch?”

“okay.”

“How long?”

Kwaduk-!

It was then that I heard the sound of bones breaking and being crushed.

Zeus, who was talking to Yuwon, turned his head.

Meeee-.

mail-!

The mountain goats roared. But the response to that cry was different from before.

Respect, not hostility. And the goats that had gathered around the egg in awe turned around and ran away, filled with fear and a sense of betrayal.

Sssssssssssssssssssss-.

Purple smoke came out from inside the egg. It reached out to nearby mountain goats and tightly bound their bodies.

Quad de-.

It was a sound I heard just now.

The sound of bones breaking and being crushed.

Zeus thought it was a sound made by some strong force.

however.

Kwaduk-.

That wasn’t it.

“…I don’t know what I’m seeing right now.”

Crunch-.

The moment the goats are caught in the smoke, their fur, skin, bones are crushed, and they become dry.

Even though the true nature had not yet been revealed, Zeus felt threatened by the unhatched egg.

What on earth is coming out of there?

“Is it like running into a tiger while trying to avoid a fox?”

Kwarung-! Kugoogung-!

A thunderbolt flew from Zeus’ hand. Zeus tried to fire a thunderbolt at the smoke, leaving behind the goats that were running away from the egg.

however.

Suuuu-.

The movement of the smoke that was eating the goats has changed.

The smoke, which seemed to be devouring everything around just moments ago, stopped spreading outward at some point and seeped back into the egg.

And that point is clear.

Jeopuk-.

It was when Yuwon passed the goats and got closer to Al.

“Are you still sleeping?”

No answer came back.

Zeus scattered the thunderbolt that had been created in his hand again.

This was because it was confirmed that the egg was at least friendly to Yuwon.

Zeus followed Yuwon as he walked toward the egg.

The smoke that came out of the egg in that short period of time was after eating nearly a hundred goats.

Past the dried up corpses of mountain goats.

“…Is this the guy called Maple?”

A place I approached with Yuwon. I could see the egg wriggling.

Zeus instinctively tightened his hands based on Al’s reaction.

Look at this scene right now.

Sleeping inside was an entity that could instantly eat mountain goats that even high rankers had difficulty dealing with.

It was fortunate that we were able to distinguish between enemy and enemy.

“Have you not eaten enough?”

Knock-.

To Yuwon’s answer, the egg responded by slowly hastening hatching.

The speed of explosion is still slow.

And it wasn’t just Zeus who was in a hurry.

“one-.”

Blah blah blah blah.

Gold growing rapidly.

“two-.”

Just count to three.

Skak-.

Thinking like that, Yuwon pulled out the sword from his belt. The intention was that if you were this late, I would break the egg and hatch it for you.

And to Yuwon’s reaction.

Blah blah blah-.

The egg slowly peeled off, as if it had completed preparations for hatching.

Inside the egg that hatched like that.

Chuck Chuck-.

A cute foot walked out.

“flattery-.”

“…Little?”

The height was about knee high. The hands and feet were small and the head was large.

Her skin was so pale and white that it made you think she was a doll. Zeus was instantly irritated by the cute and adorable appearance that made him look like he was 4 years old.

Are you saying we went through all this trouble just because of this kid?

“Abba. Abba-.”

Maple opened her arms wide towards Yuwon.

Even though he was still a child who found it unnatural to walk, Yuwon smiled happily as he looked at the autumn leaves.

‘I was wondering why you were taking such a long time.’

The maple leaves grew fully and eventually turned into eggs. Yuwon thought that the egg would hatch naturally over time.

But that wasn’t it.

Yuwon’s eyes turned to the corpses of mountain goats scattered around.

‘Are you still hungry?’

Dead goats.

They were all dried up like mummies, having been sucked out by the autumn leaves. Predators eat foreign bodies and use their power to increase the level and growth rate of foliage.

This is how the maple, enriched through them, hatched.

As he wished, Yuwon hugged the maple leaf and placed it on his shoulder.

The weight was quite heavy. When the palm-sized creature hatched from the egg, it grew quite large.

“Are you full?”

“huh!”

Although it was a little slurred, the answer came out correctly.

I was somewhat proud to see the boy who had only babbled like a newly born baby grow up so big.

On the other hand.

“Is this kid the one you were looking for?”

Zeus seemed somewhat dissatisfied.

“okay.”

“I just wasted time.”

I searched for him while shouting, ‘Maple!’, but I couldn’t feel any special power from the kid in front of me called Maple.

‘I really… wasted my time.’

The image of Shub Niguras appeared in Zeus’ mind.

Not only the figure that was fighting just a moment ago, but also the main body of Shub Nigguras that appeared on the first floor.

Will that little kid be able to fight him?

No, I don’t know.

I don’t know what secret there was, but Zeus didn’t think so.

but.

“You might think so.”

Yuwon was different.

He saw something that Zeus could not see. And I felt what he couldn’t feel.

I feel confident.

His choice was not wrong.

“Don’t try to convince me any more. “If you want to explain his value, show results, not words.”

“Sure.”

Kagagak-.

A sword was pulled out from Yuwon’s waist.

“To do that, let’s get out of here first.”

“That’s what I want to say.”

Only then did the corners of Zeus’ mouth rise. The moment he stretched his hand upward.

Kwarung-!

It seems like there is no more hesitation.

Zeus began throwing thunderbolts toward the Black Forest.

* * *

Kugugugugu-.

It was only about 3 minutes.

During that time, the battlefield was completely transformed by Hercules’ rampage.

A land filled with dozens of endless pits and golden lightning. And caught up in it was the mangled body of Shub Nigguras.

“Huu hu-.”

It was Hercules who was confident that he would not be defeated by anyone in terms of physical strength.

But I was so tired after just 3 minutes.

It’s a bit expensive-.

The electric shock overflowing through both arms, still uncontrollable.

It was as if he was screaming for more rampage. The thunderbolt in Hercules’ body escaped Hercules’ will to handle it.

[The power of ‘Thunderbolt’ is in your arm.]

[The power of ‘Thunderbolt’ cannot be controlled.]

[The power of ‘Thunderbolt’ cannot be controlled….]

A message that rings repeatedly.

I felt the magical power in my body draining out. The power of the lightning, which was completely uncontrolled, released too much power even if it was raised even a little, and if it got a little excited, it easily scattered like grains of sand in the hand.

So Hercules released as many thunderbolts as he could.

Otherwise, it would have been difficult to inflict proper damage to Shub Nigguras.

Wow-.

While taking a moment to sigh, I clenched my fists and adjusted my strength.

Even if he stood still and concentrated like this, the thunderbolt did not follow Hercules’ will.

‘It’s difficult. ‘Quite a lot of that too.’

All his life, Hercules fought with only his bare body.

Even if it was a fight using magic power and skills, it was only used to strengthen the body or use magic power to turn into a giant, and techniques such as changing the properties of magic power were never used.

It was because I had no talent in that area.

It’s not that I haven’t thought about why that is.

It’s not that I didn’t have a talent for magic, but my talent as a player was more than enough.

But that was the reason it was called a ‘vessel for planting lightning’.

“Why are you so dazed?”

Thanks to you, I was able to catch my breath a little.

Odin came next to Hercules. Holding Gungnir in his hand, it seemed as if he was preparing for the next shot.

“It’s still awkward.”

“It seems like you have newly gained strength.”

“yes.”

“It won’t be easy to deal with. But if I can handle it….”

Odin laughed empty-handed and said something that would have shocked anyone who heard it.

“Maybe this place will be yours.”

Odin.

He is ranked 2nd and is known to be the greatest being in this tower, excluding 1st place, who has been inactive for over 10,000 years.

He was saying that he might hand over his position to someone else. The skills that Hercules showed were amazing.

but.

“Thanks to you, I can finally see that guy’s face properly.”

The fight against Shub Nigguras is not over yet.

“Shave?”

“Then I guess you’ve never seen it before.”

“what do you mean?”

“The guy I saw on the first floor.”

Wow-.

Odin’s grip on Gungnir tightened.

“…it wasn’t this easy.”

Hercules looked at the scenery he had created.

A land so ruined that one wonders if the world will end today. These were all shocks of his own making.

But it’s easy.

Is this what you mean?

And that was then.

-Maaaaaa-.

As soon as the purple sky appeared in this world, that crying sound was heard.
